Facebook Notifications

New to XDA here, I have a Nexus One and don't seem to get any notifications on my facebook saying that ive been commented or added. The only was i find out is when i get an email.. I've tried searching threads for this same question, But there was alot of them and didn't seem to find what i was looking for. Can someone help me out or does anyone else have this problem?

The Facebook app (default one anyway) only supports Messages, Pokes, Friend Requests and Event invites.
If you're only using that, then as far as I know these are the only events you'll get notifications for.
Someone may well correct the errors above shortly though

Ok... So for example if someone writes on my wall that won't be something that the default facebook app on my Nexus will notify me about...???

Not sure about anyone else, but I do not receive any sort of notification in the tray on my NexusOne when Facebook events occur. It would be nice if a little blue FB logo would pop up in the tray with some sort of badge to notify you of the # of notifications you have... but Facebook has no love for Android and our FB app is far behind that of the iPhone (for example).

fb tells me when i have messages in the tray. you have to have facebook sync enabled under settings>account and sync>auto-sync enable for facebook.
probably have to change notification settings within the fb app as well

[Q] Big Hangouts Issue w/ merging.

This is not my problem, I'm posting for someone else.
Device: Moto G XT1068
OS: 4.4.x
App: Hangouts
Rooted: No
So basically this is a less than week old phone. I contact this person via Hangouts and SMS regularly so the merged threads are great for that. The problem is that now, for whatever reason, the Hangout messages do not appear in the thread. The user still receives notifications of the Hangout messages but when tapped they take her to the thread of SMS messages only.
Have tried unmerging, remerging, clearing data/cache. No luck whatsoever.
Unmerging did allow both the Hangouts and SMS threads to be viewed independently but that's not very useful...
Have also rebooted etc...
I've looked around XDA and the web in general but no luck so far.
Anyone know what could cause this bug and how to solve it? Thanks.

Any got a clue what's wrong?

FB Messenger Android Wear Urbane Issue

Hello guys.
I hope someone knows the answer to this because I can't find any information anywhere about it.
When I get a FB message on my Urbane all I get is a notification that I have a message. Ironically, there is an option to reply, but if you can't see the actual message while would you reply?
The notification for whatsapp messages on the other hand, includes the actual message as it should be. Messenger may well be the only app that doesn't do this.
On my Samsung Gear S Android, FB messenger worked like whatsapp, but I sold it before I could apply the Wear update to see if the issue is related to Android Wear.
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks.

I believe you have to turn on notification preview in the Facebook messenger app itself to get message to show up on the watch.

Multiple SMS threads?

So I haven't used an android phone since the HTC Hero and I'm not sure what is causing this. It doesn't do it to everyone so far and it doesn't seem to follow any pattern but here's what happens.
This afternoon I started a new text thread with my daughter and sent her 2 SMS messages using the messenger app. She responded a couple of hours later however her response came in an entirely newly created SMS thread within messenger. And she also mentioned she only received 1 of the 2 messages I sent.
This continues to happen randomly with different people. Both starting of a new thread when they reply and having not received all of my messages from the new SMS thread I had created to contact them.
I've only had this phone for a couple of days so I'm really trying to get used to it and stick with android again.
Thanks in advance!

Alright, we are going to have to take this step by step and just use the process of elimination for this.
When you are in your contacts, are there multiple contacts for your daughter? Example, Jainy and Jainy?
If there are multiple ones, one could contain only her email or with another app's contact system (example, Skype), and another instance of her contact could contain her number. So if you sent a SMS with to the wrong one, it could have never been sent.
While you are doing that, check the other contacts that it happens with.

I did check that, that's the first thing I thought it could be and there are no duplicates at all for her, or anyone else that I can see. Within her contact info particularly, it's just her phone number and no other data.

Have you tried another SMS app? Like Textra SMS or similar? Maybe the problem could lie within the app itself because I remember on the Zenfone 2, sometimes messages wouldn't send with one messenger but would be perfectly fine with another.

I haven't yet. And while I can certainly try it, I wouldn't want to use that as a fix you know what I mean? I haven't seen anyone complaining of it with this phone although a Google search reveals similar questions among a barrage of android phones but no solutions that I've seen that would apply to me.

Sorry, late reply. Didn't see this thread get updated. Use the reply button under my post to quote it so that I'll get a notification when you reply.
Yeah, I see what you mean, you could even try clearing the data and cache of the messaging app too and see that fixes it as well. But when that was an issue, I never found a solution either other than it seems to happen randomly on some phones without the user doing much.
Only solution that fixes it was other SMS messengers, but then that is also a thing to figure out as to what is causing the problem. All messaging apps read from one file that has all the messages so it might be a problem in how it is being handled by the app. I know that sometimes when I restore my SMS messages to a new phone, I have to uninstall and reinstall the messaging app because it is not displaying the messages under the correct thread.

Any reason you don't want to use a different app? Textra, chomp, and Google messenger will all do basically the same thing, slightly different colors and settings, but if one works and the other doesn't, you have a solution. I bounce between those apps on different devices without a problem.

Notifications issue

So I recently got a P20 Pro. On the whole am enjoying it and it's a good device.
One small thing I've noticed is for some apps (WhatsApp and Android Messages so far) it seems to display the time of the latest notification for that app for all notifications if there are multiple notifications for that app. If that makes sense.
Have a look at the screenshot attached. For WhatsApp they all say 52mins ago, although only the latest one was received 52mins ago. I've tried looking at notification settings both system wide and app specific. I can't seem to work out what the issue is.
Anyone had issues with this too? Or anyone got any suggestions to try fix this?

Same problem here. Can't change default tone for Messages, Gmail, Outlook, Outlook calendar and more... According to Huawei support (Norway), the development team is aware of the issue, and are "working on it".
Sorry, replied in wrong thread :silly:

Notifications are a mess on this phone. Can't expand them on the lock screen to read the full text or reply, can't long press and change notification-sound for each app like on every other phone running Oreo. The worst thing is that has been like this for months now and yet they haven't fixed it with a firmware update.
